    As soon as you remove the shapes you end up with a jelly mould and it looks stupid on the car.

    The lines of the bumper; the rub strips, number plate recess. As soon as you remove these you end up with a bar of soap.

    I thought that it was pretty euro as it is anyway. But IMO it's pretty smooth as it is, but it's hard to tell what the rest of the car looks like from just one picture.

    just a pic of my old mk1 to give you an idea of no slats but keeping the number plate recess.
